In the U.S., bingo was originally called “Beano.” It was a country fair game where a dealer would select numbered discs from a cigar box and players would mark their cards with beans. They yelled “beano” if they won.
The Game Gang played “Bingo” and enjoyed delicious Italian cuisine at the home of Melodye and Bob Rogers in November.
Susan Parker and Millie Aramanda split the first round of bingo, while Pete Toppan and Millie Aramanda split the second round. By the third bingo game David Parker was the sole winner. Mike Aramanda won four corners and Kathy Heberlein was the picture frame winner. The full blackout was a three way split between Vickie Bone, Mike Aramanda and Millie Aramanda.
The winner of the evening was Millie Aramanda, yelling “Bingo” three of the six games.
